Key to the City of San Francisco

Walt was no stranger to the city of San Francisco or the greater Bay Area, visiting the region numerous times throughout his career. Over the years he visited the region to attend such events as the Golden Gate International Exposition of 1939 and the San Francisco premiere of Fantasia (1940) at the Geary Theater. 

On December 10, 1958, Mayor George Christopher presented Walt and Lillian Disney with the Key to the City of San Francisco. One of the unique threads connecting Walt Disney with San Francisco is this Key to the City. The back of key says "Please Come Again"—an offer that the Disney family took to heart in opening The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco in 2009.
